Quicktime error...cannot open videos from "My Videos" folder. Help!

Hello. I'm running Windows XP SP2. I have lots of video files (Quicktime format..filmed via Panasonic digital camera) saved in the "My Videos" folder on my hard drive. I have always been able to open the folder, double-click the selected movie and watch the video open in it's own Quicktime window for play (and it has always played just fine). A few days ago things changed. When I double-click a selected clip the Quicktime window opens..but when I push PLAY I get this message: "QuickTime Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." HOWEVER,..if I go to the desktop and launch Quicktime from the desktop icon I can browse for my video (through the Quicktime file menu), find it and it plays perfectly. I can also (once Quicktime has been launched from the desktop) minimize it, then proceed to search for videos in the "My Videos" folder as usual and play them with no problem. It's a minor unconvenience, but I sure miss just simply navigating to "My Videos" and firing up the clips from there. Any ideas? I uninstalled the re-installed Quicktime and that didn't help. Itunes seems to be working fine as well. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Any tips, gang? I've unistalled/reinstalled Quicktime several times. I used CCleaner to mop up any registry errors/redundacies and have run multiple virus scans. Again,...iTunes works fine. Quicktime plays all my videos if I "open it first". But,..my saved video files will still not "launch and play" (via Quicktime) when selected from "My Videos" folder (which they had been doing fine up until recently). I know I can convert the videos with software that I have (or play them with VLC..which I ALSO have)...but I run a fairly clean computer and I'm the sort that just gets frustrated if things stop working like they're supposed to. If anyone has any ideas or trouble-shooting tips please advise. Cheers.

Hi,
Some questions:
1. Can you open your account via OWA?
2. Can you configure your account on other user's computer?
Try disabling any 3rd-party firewall or AV programs, make sure no proxy applictions or settings.

Getting error "cannot open" when playing Videos purchased on itunes.

I'm trying to stream videos from my PC to my iPad 2 using the "Videos" app and i keep getting error "cannot open" on any video that I try to play that I purchased through iTunes. Other videos I added that werent purshased through itunes play fine however. Can anyone help with a solution? My iPad is on 5.0.1 if that helps.

I'm getting this error suddenly. I used to be able to stream purchased movies just fine, and now it simply says, "Cannot open." With movies I ripped from my DVDs, they will play just fine, but movies purchased from iTunes give the error every time.
I know I don't have any odd characters in my name like mikesoderstrom had and I haven't changed any account details since the last time it was working a few weeks ago. The only major change I can think of is upgrading to iTunes 11.
My iTunes account says that both my Mac and my Phone are still authorized. Maybe I should try deauthorizing all anyway, but I'd rather not deal with the hassle of re-authorizing, especially if it didn't work for someone who tried it already.
I have no problems with downloading/updating apps, just with Home Sharing purchased movies.

Hi,
The first thing I would suggest is to run through the guide by Daniel_Potyrala on the link below to completely uninstall and then reinstall the Flash Player Plug-in.

Error "cannot open render.mov"

Hi
In FCP, Im trying to fix up some audio. Sent the clip to Soundtrack pro (STP) but STP says error "cannot open render.mov"
any suggestions?
I also tried opening the file directly - eg "open in editor"didn't work
also tried changing the extension to ".wav" which didn't work either.

Hi
I've got the same difficulty sending clips to Soundtrack Pro in Final Cut Studio 3. This evening, I found a turnaround that works (at least in my case), but that do not explain whether it is a bug or not.
I observed that when I send a clip to STP, two files are created :
• one looks like a STP package file and contains two small files (among them a render.mov that can be read by QT, showing that it is a sound file)
• the other has the same name but truncated (only the first 18 letters) and is a video clip.
I put this last video clip inside the STP package, and then it worked : this new package file opens in STP correctly, I can edit the sound tracks, and when I save the file in STP, all changes are made in FCP.
Can you reproduce this on your systems ?

Why cant i import a video from toast video player to imovie?

im trying to do this video for my friends birthday, and i have a video from toast video player, which doesnt load in either iphoto or imovie, what can i do? its actually really important, i need a quick answer:) thankyou very much in advance<3

Assuming it is the standard DVD format of mpeg2: (if it isn't post back with further details)
You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
If you are running Lion:
From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

Can I use the new Apple Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter to download video from a video camera by firewire to my Macbook Air ?

Can I use the new Apple Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter to download video from a video camera by firewire to my Macbook Air ?

Yes, you can use the 85 watt adaptor. You cannot use the new adaptors because your computer is not equipped with the proper MagSafe connector. But you can use the older MBP adaptors as well as a 60 watt replacement adaptor. All can be found at Apple's Online Store.

Upgrade Plug-ins error (Cannot Open File)

I was working on a document in CS3 as a final thesis for my masters work. I was using a Blurb template in order to export the file for printing. In between working on the file, one afternoon I could no longer open the file and was met with the follwing error:
Cannot Open File
IMAGE.RPLN
IMAGE FILTERS.RPLN
HYPERLINKS.RPLN
"Cannot open "Masters_book dec.indd".
Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest
versions, or upgrade to the latest version of
Adobe InDesign."
I hadn't changed any other files on my computer or ran any updates. I was simply met with the error when I tried launching the application. After trying to run necessary updates I was still met with the same error message. I downloaded the trial version of CS5 on another machine and tried to open it and was once again met with the above error message. I have a back up of the file that I can use but it still represents a lot of lost work if I have to resort to an old file.

I probably shouldn't dwell, on this, but I can get really worked up over it.
I come from the Cosmos and I can assure you we have sent no "Rays" to your puny Earth Planet today!(*)
Since this concerns a CS3 file and I haven't seen posts of others having the same issue, either with CS3 or with any other version, I have to take it as a One-Time Fluke.
I'm pretty firmly convinced this never happens. There are real problems and even if we only see them once, they are happening hundreds and thousands of times and going unreported and undetected, but they are no less real. In fact, because of the reporting bias towards repeatable problems, they are probably causing added frustration and confusion without being detected or fixed properly. So, IMNSHO, we owe a larger duty to pay attention to so-called "unreproducible" bugs.
(You can imagine how well these conversations with Adobe Support go...)
Of course, in this case, it's probably really hard to find the problem. And since it's effectively an end-of-life'd product that is 3 versions behind the released product and at least 4 versions behind the development product, well, it's hard to lose too much sleep over it.
(*) Yes, I know, this incident would not have been "today." Consider it time dilation.

Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

What arrow?
Have you tried opening the file in FCP?
If there is no error message and it will not play in QT7, it is quite possible the file is corrupted. You will need to go back to the original project and re-export the file.

Hi Yaron,
Does the file stored in local file system or a share folder on remote server? If you can load data from a file in local computer, but cannot load data from a file in a remote computer, the issue may be caused by the Kerberos authentication. In this condition,
check the following points:
Enable SQL Server for Kerberos
Check delegation settings for SQL Server service account and Computer
Add Host SPNs for FileShare Server and SQL Server

Loosing X ... 'Error: cannot open display: localhost:11.0'

Hello, I hope some may be able to help me finding a solution to this X related problem.
Before Lion everything worked as expected.
From a terminal I
ssh -X user@linuxbox
and it work as expected... all the X application come back to my Mac.
but after a while (generaly not long ... about 5 to 10 min)
I cannot launch any X application anymore.
within my Terminal I get "Error: cannot open display: localhost:11.0"
and on the linuxbox side I get " sshd[xxxx]: channel 4: open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed"
Running 10.7.1. fully updated (from my 10.6.8 Mac I do not have this problem
... and never had)
Thanks in advance for your help
PhS

'arch' is set as the alias for localhost. I never entered 'arch' anyway, that's just what the error said.
e: I tried ssh-ing into a X session on another laptop running an Ubuntu live CD. I can ssh into it normally, but when I run 'xinit -e ssh -XCT [email protected] gnome-session -- :1' it just starts a new X session on ctrl+alt+F8 using my startx file, rather than the one on the other computer.

Getting an error 'Cannot open Boot device' while trying to install Solaris

Hi,
We were trying to install Solaris * on a Sun Sparc system and the CD rom drive does not seem to get recognised. When we try booting from cd rom we get an error 'Cannot open boot device' .
This server was up & running and we were trying to remove a hard disk that had failed and modified the vfstab script . After that the system failed to even boot up. So when we tried reinstalling the OS we are running into this problem.
Am new to this technology ...And any help would be greatly appreciated. .....
Thanks

Cdrom drive must be scsi device 6
I assume you are running < boot cdrom> at the ok prompt
also at the ok prompt run the command <probe-scsi> (without the angled brackets) you need to see the following:
Target 6
Unit 0 Removable read only device TOSHIBA XM.......bigpileofnumbers
If not, check the cdrom drive and the cdrom inside
hope this helps

You generally need Perian for FLV and AVI files, and the free version of Flip4Mac for WMA or WMV files. Some files simply can't be opened on the Mac.

XOrg - Error: cannot open display: 0

I was recently using 'play on linux' to play 'League Of Legends' when the game crashed. On reboot and starting my GUI using 'startx' my GUI worked for about 40 seconds, after that I lost the ability to exit/restart my Window Manager(i3) or start any new programs. If I try to start a program from a previously existing terminal window I get something along the lines of 'Error: Cannot Open Display :0'.
I can still switch workspaces and seemingly operate already existing terminal windows.
This happens on every boot. My only known method of exiting the GUI is to restart the Machine. The 'echo $DISPLAY' command returns ':0'. I dont seem to have /var/log/Xorg.0.log' or '/var/log/Xorg.log'. Im posting from my phone.
I have already uninstalled Play on Linux, and reinstalled xorg-server.
